With all of the tit for tat posting of the commentators - one thing remains true -

All you have to do is sit back and be patient - this is all media hype & KosovO will still remain a part of Serbia! There is a lot of outrage and upset Croatians & albanians in this forum - why? Guilt can be a real problem when not dealt with straightaway - it's always easier to point the finger at someone else who only wants to keep what's rightfully theirs.

How is it 90% when there are 300000 refugees that are Serbs and do not want Kosovo to become independent. Wouldnt that make it like 75% or something? This is also under the presumption that 100% of all albans wish it so. Totally not true. The intelectual ones realise that if they declare unilateral independence they will get nowhere.

«...it is not likely that Canada might be one of the very few countries to recognize Kosovo's illegal independence ...»

Kosovo's independence won't be illegal, because it is the wish of 90+% of its population, and Mr Harper will certainly respect the wish of a majority of Kosovars, just as he l;ately recognized that the people of the province of Quebec is a nation. All the Kosovars are also a nation, very different from their oppressors, the Serbs.

As for the support Serbia is gaining, it only comes from their cousins the Russians who did not support them much during the wars in the Balkans. The Emperor Putin is only playing a political game with the USA and he will lose.

As we say in French: prends ma parole!

""Several resolutions about the future status of Kosovo and Metohija are currently in procedure before the Congress and the Senate. We have so far been very successful in preventing the passing of such resolutions," Jeremić told Serbian state television (RTS) Thursday, Beta reported. "
I stopped reading further, this guys is young and a bad liar. I am sure RTS did a special documentary “how successful Serbian diplomacy is preventing US senate and congress to pass such resolutions.”

In order for VICTOR to remove the "blinders", he must either accept and admit (to himself at least) that he has been so gullible as to have been completely brainwashed without taking the time to evaluate the factual information for himself. He only says one thing and refuses to answer questions posed to him so I must conclude what Victor perceives as the truth is proportional to how deeply he believes the lie?

CANADIAN the only reason we are not self sufficient in Energy is due to Brian Mulroney and the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) For example two years ago electricity costs for Ontario users went up astronomically because of privatization of Ontario Hydro. Electricity brokers were able to purchase power in Ontario and sell it in the Eastern US market. Since the price in US was way higher than in Ontario the Ontario users had to pay the same price if they wanted electricity..

As far as oil is concerned we have more oil in Canada (Tar Sands) than the whole Middle East but the cost of extraction is way higher. We were forced by the oil lobby in Alberta to abandon Foreign Investment Review Agency (FIRA) and Petrocan which Trudeau introduced so that Canada would not be a hostage to foreign energy and after the FTA we were forced to privatize Petrocan and sell oil to America as long as it is available.

As soon as all the Croatian and Muslim mass murderers are tried and prosecuted first. As well as when it becomes illegal for Croatians to celebrate the worst genocidal act of the 90. The ethnic cleansing that took place in Krajina. Also we will give independence to Kosovo when Krajina is given independence and all the Serbs return to it.

I agree to the Canadian: the more time goes by the more support Serbia is gaining.

that´s one of the reasons why the US are pressing on a time-schedule, besides that they wanna close the book in order to take their troops out, since they are desperately needed somewhere else.

Victor,

At least Serbia does not recognize the NAZI's as heroes through songs and concerts like the Croatians do! And Canada's PM Harper is getting a lot of heat from Canada's parliament for being Bush's new Poodle. I know this I live in Canada and read the news papers, it is not likely that Canada might be one of the very few countries to recognize Kosovo's illegal independence and for that matter the Croatians will be 80% dependent on Russian energy coming via Serbia in 2009 so they too will not sacrifice energy for their countries to recognize Kosovo either. The Serbian FM is right, about 40% of the UNSC Council would not recognize Kosovo and about 70% of the EU would not, followed by at least 75% of the world not recognizing Kosovo. It looks very unlikely that Kosovo will ever have independence and as time goes by Serbia will gain more and more support, the Americans know this thus their hurry to conclude this nonsense as soon as possible.

I hope none of these liars would come to Canada. If these politicians in Belgrade would have a bit of morale sense, they would first look at the utmost important task they have to do: bring to justice all the war criminals who tarnished the image of all Serbs because of the genocide in Bosnia, the horrendous atrocities perpetrated across Bosnia and Kosovo. After, Canada could invite them to Canada, but only then! And all nations should do the same until they fully comply and show more justice for the victims of their aggressions in the Balkans.

"If you are pushing parties in the negotiations, then it doesn't make much sense that you are announcing in advance what should be the outcome of these negotiations," he said.

Exactly! It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure that out.

I really hope that the US starts being reasonable and realistic about this. The costs longterm will be far greater than any short term benefits, and the US should certainly not bend to veiled threats or fears of violence by the Kosovo Albanians.

They should also get rid of Polt immediately if they don't want their reputation permanently tarnished in Europe.
